Your Bio

Welcome to my online photography gallery!

After much thought, talk, and encouragement - It’s finally here! Currently, the site has galleries for my past 2005 & 2006 photography calendars. Plus the new photographs for the 2007 calendar! I hope to continue to expand the pictures available for you to view as time allows.

The 2007 calendar is a collaboration with my husband, Andrew. We are both amateur photographers. It is great to have this common interest although we can be competitive at times.

About Christy Lowd:
I began taking pictures at a very young age. I was surrounded by a family who took pictures whenever possible (and still does). In middle school my dad showed me how to use my parent’s film SLR (Single Lens Reflex) camera. It was a Canon AE-1 with manual focus, etc., it is a wonderful camera to learn on. In college I got a Canon AE-1 of my own and have used it until the spring of 2005. With the help of friends and family, I had saved up enough money to purchase a Canon Digital Rebel XT.

I am still amazed when people appreciate the photographs that I take. This is truly something I enjoying doing and am blessed with the ability to capture in two-dimensions what God created in three. I am thankful to my husband, family, friends, students, and co-workers for the support and encouragement to take this to the next level.
